System and method for providing an interactive screen on a wireless device interacting with a server
First Claim
1. A system for displaying an interactive screen on the graphic display of a wireless device communicating with network server prior to download of data to the wireless device, the system comprising:
- one or more user-interactive wireless devices, each wireless device including a computer platform and a graphic display thereon, and each wireless device in selective communication to a wireless network; and
one or more network servers in selective communication to the wireless network, and each network server selectively in communication with the one or more wireless devices and selectively downloading applications and data to wireless devices thereto, wherein, upon a wireless device attempting to download data from a network server across the wireless network, the system transmitting an interactive screen to the computer platform of the wireless device across the wireless network prior to downloading the data to the wireless device, and the wireless device displaying the interactive screen on the graphic display thereof, wherein the interactive screen is transmitted to the wireless device from a first network server that the wireless device attempted to download data from, wherein upon a wireless device attempting to download data from a first network server across the wireless network, the interactive screen is transmitted to the wireless device from a second network server across the wireless network.

Abstract
A system and method for displaying an interactive screen, such as an end-user license agreement or verification form, on the graphic display of a wireless device when the wireless device connects to a network server on a wireless network and attempts to access or download software applications and data. The user of the wireless device must then affirmatively interact with the interactive screen in order to access or download a software application or data from the network server. The interactive screen can be transmitted from the network server where the wireless device seeks to access or download an application or data, or can be transmitted from a separate server to the wireless device. The records of the wireless device-server interactions can be stored on a network server or other data stores on the wireless network.
